Inheritance Tax Changes Keep Coming for Expats Property

Changes Keep Coming

Inheritance Tax  changes mean that you must settle your world-wide estate in the country you habitually ‘live’.  This could be different to the country of your tax residence AND the country of your tax domicile (‘where you are from’)

Cyprus has 0% inheritance tax (IHT) so is a better place to pay inheritance tax than the UK where 40% applies. This depends on your domicile.  Cyprus now define your domicile in law.  If you are Cyprus Domiciled you pay 0% IHT.

If you are ‘non-dom’, not domiciled you also are now have Cyprus tax saving on bank interest, bond interest and dividends received.  But by definition you then still have your home country domicile, eg 40% UK where you were born.

Your worldwide assets (including Cyprus Property) could be assessed for 40% UK IHT if you settle you Will & Estate under English law.
